Article 4 is right to justice a) Justice is of paramount importance in Islam. One of the names of Allah Supreme is The Just. Justice will be given on the day of judgement and all the worldly actions and judgment through Allah's laws will be either rewarded if done properly or punished if misused. Hadith states that seven people will be in the shade of Allah on judgement day and the first in this shade will be a just ruler1. When we talk of justice we mean Islamic justice. The will of Allah is the standard for justice. When He says something as forbidden then that is the standard of injustice, and when He commands something then that is the standard for justice. Such commands and prohibitions however must be mandatory. It is because on mandatory laws reward and punishment is based. b) I do not agree that every injustice should be protested by every individuals. It is however important that certain section with knowledge of the law protests injustice through dialogue and constructive criticism. What every Muslim needs to do is dislike in his heart, injustice. This is what their spiritual humanity demands. Some people are too quick to ring the hadith of “Whoever sees an evil let him change it by his hand.....tongue...heart” in Muslim. If we see at the last part of hadith which says denial by heart is the weakest then it is clear that this command is not individual obligation but collective obligation. Also there can be no evil in an action in which the legal schools have disagreed on through their jurisprudence and evidences, such as some minority theologians stated in the present time that celebrating birthday of prophet pbuh is a bidah (evil) while it has been celebrated by Islamic scholars and lay men since generations. Another principle is if stopping the evil through force brings a greater harm then the way of force should be stopped.

c) I do not agree to this point. What is Islamic is everyone has a duty or obligation not to violate other's right. As to the matter of protecting is in the hand of the state. If everyone were allowed to protect everyone's rights there would be disorder. People would misuse this as an excuse to further their revenge or extend their dominance over others. For example killing the killer just because the killer has killed your relative or brother, or taking diyah from the killer on behalf of the victim's relative in the name of protecting the relative's right. d) Every one has the right to defend his right with in the bounds of Islamic law. The state and the relevant institutions have the duty to protect public rights.

e) No obedience to the ruler in disobedience of the Creator2. This does not justify rebellion. It is a passive disobedience.
